Effective Tuesday, September 1, 2026, diesel went down ₱3.90 per liter, gasoline went down ₱0.32 and kerosene went down ₱3.84, as announced by the oil companies.
The Department of Energy reported the range across all oil companies in its weekly Oil Monitor: diesel rollback of ₱3.80 to ₱3.90, gasoline rollback of ₱0.30 to ₱0.40, kerosene rollback of ₱3.80 to ₱3.84 per liter. The figures above fall within it.
Why prices moved: Dubai crude fell about $1.00 a barrel. International gasoline fell about $2.00 a barrel and diesel fell about $9.30. The peso weakened from ₱61.67 to ₱61.80 per US dollar, which makes imported fuel more expensive. (Trading week of August 24 to 28, 2026; figures from the Department of Energy's Oil Monitor.)
The week before (August 25, 2026), diesel went up ₱2.31 per liter, gasoline went up ₱1.08 and kerosene went up ₱0.95. From January 1 to this week, the Department of Energy counted 35 price adjustments, leaving gasoline up a net ₱54.62, diesel up a net ₱55.26 and kerosene up a net ₱47.85 per liter. For a 40-liter gasoline fill-up, that meant ₱12.80 less; for a 60-liter diesel tank, ₱234.00 less.
